e2deab7a75 Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas.
Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas (though the global
red-black tree of huge allocations remains for lookup during
deallocation).  This is the logical conclusion of recent changes that 1)
made per arena dss precedence apply to huge allocation, and 2) made it
possible to replace the per arena chunk allocation/deallocation
functions.

Remove the top level huge stats, and replace them with per arena huge
stats.

Normalize function names and types to *dalloc* (some were *dealloc*).

Remove the --enable-mremap option.  As jemalloc currently operates, this
is a performace regression for some applications, but planned work to
logarithmically space huge size classes should provide similar amortized
performance.  The motivation for this change was that mremap-based huge
reallocation forced leaky abstractions that prevented refactoring.

fb7fe50a88 Add support for user-specified chunk allocators/deallocators.
Add new mallctl endpoints "arena<i>.chunk.alloc" and
"arena<i>.chunk.dealloc" to allow userspace to configure
jemalloc's chunk allocator and deallocator on a per-arena
basis.

4d434adb14 Make dss non-optional, and fix an "arena.<i>.dss" mallctl bug.
Make dss non-optional on all platforms which support sbrk(2).

Fix the "arena.<i>.dss" mallctl to return an error if "primary" or
"secondary" precedence is specified, but sbrk(2) is not supported.

ada8447cf6 Reduce maximum tested alignment.
Reduce maximum tested alignment from 2^29 to 2^25.  Some systems may not
have enough contiguous virtual memory to satisfy the larger alignment,
but the smaller alignment is still adequate to test multi-chunk
alignment.

2850e90d0d Remove flawed alignment-related overflow test.
Remove the allocm() test equivalent to the mallocx() test removed in the
previous commit.  The flawed test attempted to cause OOM due to large
request size and alignment constraint.  Although this test "passed" on
64-bit systems due to the virtual memory hole, it could pass on some
32-bit systems.

a184d3fcde Fix/remove flawed alignment-related overflow tests.
Fix/remove three related flawed tests that attempted to cause OOM due to
large request size and alignment constraint.  Although these tests
"passed" on 64-bit systems due to the virtual memory hole, they could
pass on some 32-bit systems.

b2c31660be Extract profiling code from [re]allocation functions.
Extract profiling code from malloc(), imemalign(), calloc(), realloc(),
mallocx(), rallocx(), and xallocx().  This slightly reduces the amount
of code compiled into the fast paths, but the primary benefit is the
combinatorial complexity reduction.

Simplify iralloc[t]() by creating a separate ixalloc() that handles the
no-move cases.

Further simplify [mrxn]allocx() (and by implication [mrn]allocm()) to
make request size overflows due to size class and/or alignment
constraints trigger undefined behavior (detected by debug-only
assertions).

Report ENOMEM rather than EINVAL if an OOM occurs during heap profiling
backtrace creation in imemalign().  This bug impacted posix_memalign()
and aligned_alloc().

d82a5e6a34 Implement the *allocx() API.
Implement the *allocx() API, which is a successor to the *allocm() API.
The *allocx() functions are slightly simpler to use because they have
fewer parameters, they directly return the results of primary interest,
and mallocx()/rallocx() avoid the strict aliasing pitfall that
allocm()/rallocx() share with posix_memalign().  The following code
violates strict aliasing rules:

    foo_t *foo;
    allocm((void **)&foo, NULL, 42, 0);

whereas the following is safe:

    foo_t *foo;
    void *p;
    allocm(&p, NULL, 42, 0);
    foo = (foo_t *)p;

mallocx() does not have this problem:

    foo_t *foo = (foo_t *)mallocx(42, 0);

0f4f1efd94 Add mq (message queue) to test infrastructure.
Add mtx (mutex) to test infrastructure, in order to avoid bootstrapping
complications that would result from directly using malloc_mutex.

Rename test infrastructure's thread abstraction from je_thread to thd.

Fix some header ordering issues.

2a83ed0284 Refactor tests.
Refactor tests to use explicit testing assertions, rather than diff'ing
test output.  This makes the test code a bit shorter, more explicitly
encodes testing intent, and makes test failure diagnosis more
straightforward.

86abd0dcd8 Refactor to support more varied testing.
Refactor the test harness to support three types of tests:
- unit: White box unit tests.  These tests have full access to all
  internal jemalloc library symbols.  Though in actuality all symbols
  are prefixed by jet_, macro-based name mangling abstracts this away
  from test code.
- integration: Black box integration tests.  These tests link with
  the installable shared jemalloc library, and with the exception of
  some utility code and configure-generated macro definitions, they have
  no access to jemalloc internals.
- stress: Black box stress tests.  These tests link with the installable
  shared jemalloc library, as well as with an internal allocator with
  symbols prefixed by jet_ (same as for unit tests) that can be used to
  allocate data structures that are internal to the test code.

Move existing tests into test/{unit,integration}/ as appropriate.

Split out internal parts of jemalloc_defs.h.in and put them in
jemalloc_internal_defs.h.in.  This reduces internals exposure to
applications that #include <jemalloc/jemalloc.h>.

Refactor jemalloc.h header generation so that a single header file
results, and the prototypes can be used to generate jet_ prototypes for
tests.  Split jemalloc.h.in into multiple parts (jemalloc_defs.h.in,
jemalloc_macros.h.in, jemalloc_protos.h.in, jemalloc_mangle.h.in) and
use a shell script to generate a unified jemalloc.h at configure time.

Change the default private namespace prefix from "" to "je_".

Add missing private namespace mangling.

Remove hard-coded private_namespace.h.  Instead generate it and
private_unnamespace.h from private_symbols.txt.  Use similar logic for
public symbols, which aids in name mangling for jet_ symbols.

Add test_warn() and test_fail().  Replace existing exit(1) calls with
test_fail() calls.
